Venezuela has the largest proven oil reserves in the world. It was once so rich that Concorde used to fly from Caracas to Paris. But in the last three years its economy has collapsed. Hunger has gripped the nation for years. Now, it’s killing people and animals that are dying of starvation. The Venezuelan government knows, but won’t admit it!!! Four in five Venezuelans live in poverty. People queue for hours to buy food. Much of the time they go without. People are also dying from a lack of medicines. Inflation is at 82,766% and there are warnings it could exceed one million per cent by the end of this year. Venezuelans are trying to get out. The UN says 2.3 million people have fled the country - 7% of the population.

"The PC system vendors are absolutely getting more aggressive in the media and entertainment space," observed Greg Estes, media and entertainment industry executive at NVIDIA. "They perceive there is an opening with some of the latest decisions Apple has made."


HP, for instance, recently teamed up with Adobe and camera maker Red to introduce its new Z820 Red Edition desktop workstation, a customized version of the HP Z820 that comes ready for production with a Red Rocket accelerator card and two Red SSD card readers.

"We are not aiming to get away from Mac," Red exec Ted Schilowitz told The Hollywood Reporter. "But it's pretty obvious that Apple's focus is in the mobile computing world. [Filmmakers] drive a lot data. Mac is viable, but if want the most horsepower, you are now looking at HP."

Dell has formed an advisory board of professionals that use Apple's Final Cut. According to Scott Hamilton, Dell's vertical market strategist for workstations, some of the company's advisors have stated discontent with Final Cut Pro X and Apple's workstations and "they've said `we feel abandoned by Apple.'

Siggraph reported attendance of 21,212 as it wrapped Thursday at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
